Schedule

January 27th, 2010

Notes from this day's meeting 0 (thanks Tobias):

  • Course material will follow the course that was given at Stanford (see reading material, below)
  • The proposed examination forms was that one does either a library implementation OR a presentation of some paper covering category theory. That way, we will also cover the weeks that are left after the Stanford course material is covered.
  • Before each meeting, one should have done the corresponding exercises in the Stanford course. We then discuss the results at the meeting
  • Each meeting is planned for two hours, however if people feel like staying longer that is probably possible, since nobody has any lectures at 1900 anyway.
  • Meeting times will be Tuesday 17:00, in EL42
